Mac OS on a Dell? Dell Favors, Apple Opposes

If Apple Computer ever decides to let its Mac OS
X operating system outside of its confines, the company may see Dell
founder and chairman Michael Dell as a
customer.

With the recent news that Apple
plans to become a
fellow Intel customer for x86 processors, Dell has expressed interest
in selling Mac OS X-based PCs, Dell said in an e-mail to Fortune published on
the magazine's Web
site today.
